.....a bit mutton!

A large part of my tuition involves making sure that my pupils are made more aware of vunerable road users and pedestrians.
Sometimes during the question and answer sessions some very amusing thought processes are exposed.
Question: "How would you identify a deaf person by looking at them?",
Answer: "I would know that if the deaf person was talking to himself!"
(sign language).
Not quite the answer I was looking for.

Question: "Did you know that deaf people sometimes have hearing dogs?"
Answer: "No!"
Question: " What colour might you think the leads and collars are on hearing dogs?"
Answer: "Don't know!"
Explanation: "The leads and collars for hearing dogs are luminous orange in colour".


Question: "How could you tell if a pedestrian was blind by looking at them?"
Answer: "He would have a guide dog."
Question: "Excellent, what colour would the lead and collar be on the guide dog?"
Answer: "Bright yellow!"
Question "Excellent! How else could you identify a blind person?"
Answer: "They would have a white stick"
Question: "That's right! How then would you know if a person was deaf and blind?"
Answer: "They would have a yellow dog and an orange dog!"

(Look to heavens for inspiration.)

Correct answer should have been that the white stick would have 2 red bands around it half way up.

Bless 'em!
